Fettling a featherboard (b)
- Another detail of the locking arrangement.
- This tee-nut is what featherboard is attached to. A shallow groove hold it neatly in place. The spurs were fixed into pilot holes, as I didn't want the runner to split (it's a piece of very dry jarrah).
- The nut is a poofteenth less than the width of my mitre slot.
- Detail of the wingnut glued into the underside of the main knob.
- I'm yet to become well practised with a router, so an easy way to cut the slot was to cut the end off, cut the slot on the tablesaw, and then dowel the sawn end back on.
Those are my principles, and if you don't like them . . . well, I have others.
